The first ingredient on the "Other Ingredients" list is dextrose, a fast acting, high glycemic sugar...so you tell me On a side note..I also try to steer clear of anything that has any FD&C (Color) #XX..not good for your health/body

I do the exact same thing during my cut, but I only do the 1200kcal/day diet short term, a couple of weeks, as I whittle myself down to my contest (birthday) weight which is next Thursday.

I agree with you but I also agree with the other posters. I myself typically have a light dinner with the majority of my calories being eaten earlier in the day, here is tonight's dinner for example: Bottom Sirloin Steak, 4 oz Food Club - Baby Broccoli Florets (Freshly Frozen), 1 cup (85g) Olivio - Light, 1 Tbsp I've lost…

I don't try to put up more than 205lbs anymore on the bench press, my right shoulder is pretty wrecked from repetitive motion injury from years on my job. I still have a mean squat/deadlift of 375lbs though.

Yes that was a 5k (3.1mi)

My best time last year was 00:24:04. I run the same event again Labor Day weekend. I'm 5'5" 147lbs 8%BF right now, I have a good balance of strength, power, speed and endurance ; )

I've gained 2.5lbs over the last week from water retention, but then again I've been sodium loading (3,500mg/day) to purposely achieve this ; )

BPI Sports Best Creatine Defined Lean Muscle Hardening Agent, Blue Crush, 10.58 Ounce

I use a Garmin Vivofit and the UA Band, my YTD (Year To Date) Average is 11,121 steps/day (According to Garmin Connect)

At one point I had so many things synced/linked to MFP it was triple/quadruple counting!

You can train legs any time/any where with some good ole fashion bodyweight squats or lunges, same holds true with just about every body part. I don't miss workouts unless I'm extremely ill which is rare. If I don't have an hour for the gym I'll squeeze in 15-20 minutes at home doing something at least.

This time of season (cutting)...every day (to some degree/extent)

Yes, welcome to the club!

Never heard of it until now, doesn't look to be very popular according to the Amazon reviews.

I do that too, it's good cardio if you have the stamina and coordination!

After my weight routine (3x/wk) I do 30 minutes of treadmill intervals as such: 3min warmup at 4.2mph/1min at 6mph/1min 5mph (recovery) - I do this 2x then increase to 6.5mph/7.0/7.5/8.0/8.5/9.0mph each done 2x (except 9.0mph is done once) then 3min cool-down at 5.0mph working down to 4.0mph

I'm in the 108+ month category and gains don't come easy or quickly anymore

My post-bulk starting weight was 173lbs as of March 1st, I'm currently 144lbs

I just finished 20 minutes of intense calisthenics that burned 608kcal (yes that's little to me)

Yes, I've tried different strategies and found that 3 larger meals over 8hrs are more satiating than 5/6 smaller meals spread over 12-16hrs which usually led to overeating.

10 second sprint/50 second walk, wash/rinse/repeat for 20 minutes (does not include 3 minute warmup/cool-down)

I don't eat anything after 6pm and I don't eat again until 10am (Intermittent Fasting). You have to be disciplined and possess a high level of willpower.

The MFP food database has a pretty extensive list of restaurant foods. You can also google the particular restaurant for it's menu's nutritional facts but may have mixed success.

I typically drink 128-136oz/day and I only weigh 145lbs, but I work in extreme heat for 8hrs and spend another hour in the gym or exercising outside after work so I be sure to stay well hydrated. I don't flavor the water with anything either, maybe that could help you get more down.

When running for weight loss I do HIIT for 20-30 minutes

MCT Oil, Flaxseed Oil, Nuts and Nut Butters, Seeds

When I'm cutting (like now) I always go with the smaller number no matter what.

It varies with the individual, you'll just have try several to find what works for you. Personally, when I cut in the Spring/Summer, I have the most success with Intermittent Fasting in conjunction with Keto but they are not for those lacking in willpower.

LOL! I bulk in the Autumn/Winter and cut in Spring/Summer, it's only short term I assure you.

I'm on a 1200kcal/day diet with 5% carbs, 75% fat, and 20% protein..that's the macros for a Ketogenic Diet, it was tough at first but I'm well into Ketosis now and doing great! P.S. Don't forget to subtract your fiber grams from your total carbohydrate grams for net carbs ; )
